Results & transformations from competitive tennis players
Results after 6 weeks of working together
I used to struggle with pressure in matches, distracting thoughts, was focused too much on the score and others that negatively impacted my tennis. I liked how Nathan listened and understood my problems very well. I gained new perspectives that have allowed me to look at myself more positively and enjoy tennis more. Through his coaching, I’ve gained more control over my focus, emotions, feel less nervous, but most importantly, I feel better when I play. In a period of two months of working together, I moved up the national ranking from 228 to 64! The investment was definitely worth it as I will be using this knowledge for the rest of my life both on and off-court.
Results after 4 weeks of working together
I always used to be stressed about tennis and played worse in matches compared to practice. I’ve tried many tools and worked with other psychologists to overcome my nerves in matches. That didn’t help me until I started to work with Nathan. That’s when I started to feel better. I don’t get as nervous anymore and play much better in matches now.
D1 college – results after 4 coaching sessions
Before working with Nathan, I wasn’t feeling good and I didn’t play well. I lost several matches in a row against players that I usually beat. In 1 session, Nathan helped me to get clarity and we developed a plan that has been working really well! My focus is on the future that I look forward to and my results also got better. I’m on a 5-match winning streak at the moment. In short, I am very happy about it and would highly recommend him.
I’ve worked with a couple of mental coaches before but I had a tough time finding real solutions. Nathan’s approach was different and what I liked about it is that we’ve been going deeper to the core of my problems. His guidance and practical insights have been very useful for the feelings I was struggling with. It’s not always easy, but he provides a safe environment that makes it comfortable to talk about. I notice I continue to feel better and better both on and off-court which allows me to be my best more. Thanks Nathan!
I really enjoyed working with Nathan. I felt understood and comfortable sharing some personal challenges. His tennis experience was helpful to relate with and through the visual explanations in the sessions, I understand how my thoughts impact my feelings and tennis better. My new mindset has helped me to feel less pressure. I have become calmer and more confident in matches and that’s helping me to stick to my game plan better. Thanks a lot Nathan!
Before I worked with Nathan, I was frustrated with not playing as well as I used to when I was younger. I wanted to be more consistent and enjoy tennis more. Once we worked together, I learned to let go, be more calm, and focus better. As a result, I worry less now. My consistency really improved and I enjoy tennis much more! I highly recommend Nathan for any tennis player.
My main challenge was finding a proper way to balance tennis, school, and teaching. Before Nathan’s help, I was getting frustrated recently due to school and matches leaving little time to prepare mentally. I was definitely in a bit of a slump after having some good results. It was great to work with Nathan. He took the time and had a great tone while staying focused on the main things. It helped me to reflect on how I used to think on the court prior to the large influx from school. As a result, my head was much more clear and it allowed me to gather back more confidence. I am not ranked (yet) but I had my first win against a ranked D3 player in straight sets. I would highly recommend working with Nathan.
The biggest eye-opener was the harsh criticism I would treat myself with for not matching the expectations I had set for myself. Over the years, it made me dislike running which meant so much to me. Nathan helped me to re-evaluate my values and changed the way I think and act about challenges. Now, I have a skill set that I use on a daily basis to set myself up for success and, gradually, enjoy my running more. Nathan’s knowledge provided me with great insights to create an empowering mindset!
Tennis is the Zen of Sports. You need the technique while being relaxed and fiercely competitive. Nathan is excellent on both fronts. He has the capacity to teach technique and the state of mind in order to play great tennis. You have to be calm so that adrenaline enhances your shots rather than ruining them. Nathan understands this aspect of the game far better than any coach I’ve ever worked with.
Nathan is a friendly motivated coach that I liked working with. By using some simple mental tools from him, I noticed improvements in my game already after a few sessions.
Mentally, I had a tough time focusing on every point, especially after unforced errors. As a result, I would make more mistakes. My previous coaches didn’t focus on the mental side but Nathan helped me a lot with this. I have more control over my emotions now. He also taught me to focus in a new way that immediately helped me play better. I highly recommend his coaching for others who want to get better.
In matches, I was not very confident which made me play worse. Besides that, I wasn’t aware of what I could improve about my game. When I worked with Nathan, he helped me to focus in a new way on important aspects of my game. This made me feel calmer, improved my balance and decision making. I realized that my skills are better than I think but it’s about having the right focus and mindset!
I’ve been working with Nathan for about a month now. He is always enthusiastic, knows what things are important, and has valuable exercises and suggestions. Nathan has been very helpful in coaching me, and my physical performance has improved because of it. I am now able to start my races better and run faster because I am more relaxed and mentally prepared.
The session with Nathan about my son was eye-opening. He helped me gain insights about the relationship I have with my son I wasn’t aware of. I became more aware of certain behaviors that I as a mom unconsciously conveyed to my son and now I am confident I can positively change these. Nathan is very clear in explaining things and nice to talk to, thanks a lot!
Before working with Nathan, I had a tough time to be consistent in matches. When we worked together, he made me realize that the cause of my inconsistency was due to my mindset. Nathan was positive and patient which I liked and he gave me practical tips on how I could maintain my focus during matches. After only 1 session, I already feel different on the court and mentally much stronger!
Nathan has been coaching me tennis in a different way than I’ve been used to. He works a lot with goals and evaluating these. Because of this, I am hitting balls with specific intentions instead of simply playing tennis and I notice I’m improving! His mental tools have helped me to be a lot more calm and not get mad quickly. He is good at listening and receiving feedback. If you’re looking for a coach who can help you improve your tennis and mindset, then I highly recommend Nathan.
I used to be unfocused and play inconsistent tennis. Nathan taught me to become more aware through simple exercises. As a result, my focus and tennis really improved! I would recommend Nathan for others.
My goal was to be less stressed and bring my game to a higher level. I liked Nathan’s methodology. It helped me to be more calm and focused. I happen to play much better tennis than I thought I could! I’d highly recommend him.
I really like working with Nathan. I was interested in his mindset coaching because I knew that he was knowledgeable based on the content that he shared on social media. He doesn’t only understand the principles but also applies it. That is very valuable to me and makes it easy to relate. Through the coaching process, I have become more present and calm on the tennis court which improved my performance and made me a better tennis player.
Before working with Nathan, I used to be very nervous before matches, felt sick, and had trouble eating. After a couple of months, I feel better, can eat regular breakfast now, and the pressure went from a 7 to a 3 out of 10. I play a lot more freely and better in matches. I enjoyed the flexibility of the sessions but also how he challenged me. It helped me to reach my goals of transferring to a better university and being the line-up, getting my first ITF point and moving into the top 100 of the national ranking.
